Hi,
From updating the new droplet console, it cause the /sbin/init to be removed.
Now the server will not complete booting.
Is there a way to create a new init for the existing system?
thanks,

Hello,
What I could suggest here is to restore to a backup in case that you have one:

If you don’t have a backup, you could try to recover your data from the problematic Droplet with the Recovery ISO as described here:
